    Not bad given pricing of new OE ones.

    Trying to figure out your number-logic. The restoration job is $79 for a pair, and your lenses are $50 for one side. So you are looking at $79 versus $100 for cost. (not counting shipping) Sure, not a huge difference, but I will tell you that after I complete the restoration process, you will think they are brand new. Plus many people have retrofitted headlights, or factory HID headlights, and those are VERY expensive to replace. So that is where I have received much of my sales from.

    What I love is their "special coating on lens" Which is, in fact, a protective automotive grade clear coat.

    Looks good. That eyebrow doesn't affect light output or direction, does it?
